Just popping in.....

Hello blog world!
Yup........it's Maria..........I have 2.2 minutes to write this up....then have to get back to my crazy life.

So happy to announce that our Allyson Rioux Memorial Foundation fundraiser raised $40,000.00 and we are able to give $20,000.00 to both our beneficiaries! Yah!!!  We know that will help tremendously with their medical bills.

I've returned from Texas A&M too.......the softball trip wasn't too successful, but I'm still so thrilled for the team, coaches and the program.  It's a big leap for Sacred Heart University to get to the regionals for the 2nd time in 3 years!!!

I've also been busy with the Humane Society, Haylee, helping Cindy out with her dogs (and they just adopted #5 "Stevie - a blind yorkie who was a 'stud' dog at a puppy mill.  He wasn't always blind, but an untreated infection made him that way. Another reason NOT TO SHOP AT PETSTORES!!!!). Still walking Buddy & Buster during the week AND taking care of my own three dogs.  

My craft room has seen little of me lately..........I'm hoping after next weekend...life will settle down.  I'm trying to get ot my blog visits too. My google reader had almost 250 posts in it!!!!!

Hope you have a nice Memorial Day weekend and take some time to remember those veterans, those currently serving and those who gave their lives for our country and our freedom!!



Thanks for your visit!
